   G            D        A          BmI went to the subway to play my guitar
          G          D          A          Bmwith the Chicago police I didn't get very far
       G        D     A         Bm See, in my left pocket i had a bag
     G         D           A          Bm      Aand nobody liked it when i offered a drag, i said

Bm                  A"Come on boys, you know you all do it!"
          G                                          G   ABut the look on their face said, "Man, you just blew it!"
      Bm                              AThey took me to the station, took my photograph
     G             D/F#        G          AAnd if you ever see it, I'll bet you'll laugh

              G    D A BmThey call me "Dion 46501"
       G              D           A         BmJust a free-wheeling, life-loving son of a gun
G          D               A        BmCome on now boys, I didn't hurt anyone
              G    D A BmI'm singing, "Dion 46501"

    G           D             A         BmNow back at the station they gave me a cell
          G            D             A            Bmit was stinky, it was junky, it was ugly, it was cold as...
G        D          A       Bm"Hello, neighbors, HOWDLEE DOO!
              G        D             A         Bm AWhy does the City of Chicago have a beef with you?"

Bm                AOne man said, "I mugged an old lady"
 G                                         G  AAnother man said, "I Ain't killed nobody lately"
 Bm                                        AAnother man said, "I'm the devil and I'll steal your soul"
          G         D/F#         G        AI said, "I'm a musician playing rock and roll"

              G    D A BmThey call me "Dion 46501"
       G              D           A         BmJust a free-wheeling, life-loving son of a gun
G          D               A        BmCome on now boys, I didn't hurt anyone

 G D A Bm

Bm           ALate nights, early beers
G                   G AI play, people cheer
Bm         AI just do what i do
    G        D/F#          G         Aand i don't think that i'm bothering you

           G     D           A           BmWell they let me out about a quarter to four
                G              D                  A               Bmthey said, "Now keep this up, Dion, and we'll be seeing you some more!"
G           D       A      BmOn the way home I lost me way
     G         D            A        Bm  A The city was coming on the break of day

Bm                        AAll the people looked at me with a sneer
          G                               G  AThey said, "What the hell is he doing here?"
Bm                       AI hopped a bus about a quarter to five
       G         D/F#        G        AAnd I said to myself, "Thank God i'm alive!'

         G    D A BmSinging "Dion 46501"
       G              D           A         BmJust a free-wheeling, life-loving son of a gun
G          D               A        BmCome on now boys, I didn't hurt anyone
              G    D A BmI'm singing, "Dion 46501"
